Kayane's Hands-on Impressions of SC5

Man. I was really hoping I was going to be wrong about how they implemented JG. Here comes another game where Maxi is complete garbage. With only 3 options out of each stance, its gonna be retardedly easy to JG his stance moves. So unless they just give him an absurd amount of blockstun on his stance moves that not even JG will allow interuption, it's entirely possible that Maxi will be even less competitive than in SCIV.
I guess my only hope is that they give him SCIII 2A+B. Then I can at least be a 50/50 whore.

You mean algol, Ivy, hilde, sophitia and apprentice (BS throw break)?
That's 5 characters who are stupidly powerful in sc4.

In sc3, it was just sophitia and X who dominated the rest. And hwang is not all that he's cracked up to be, even with 3AAB, which in my opinion isn't even his best move. Sure he's strong, but nowhere near broken as so many people claim.
Seriously, If you DON'T do VC, sc3 wasn't all that unbalanced (arguably, with VC the game is MORE balanced)
Taking all these things into consideration, I definitely feel like sc3 was more balanced. Sc2 had them all beat when It came to balance.

So...why in the hell do you have Sophie up there with those characters? I just had to point this out, that's ridiculous.
Hwang's best move was 3AA, you can't argue that (the use of it combined with the threat of it).
Sc3 was pretty well balanced with or without VC (arguably with VC the game is MORE balanced)

For SC5, I'm not looking for it to be as good as sc3, cause sc3 to me is the best fighting....err, best game ever made. I just want the online to be good, and the speed to be increased back to the level of either sc3 or sc2. Other than that, the closer they make the game to sc3, the better.

And please no more putting in characters that don't belong in the game (Algol's bubbles, Apprentice's breaks, Amy's cuntishness, Hilde's bullshit, Yoda).
GI's input should be EXACTLY the same as it has been, and low GI should be the same.
I want the game to come out and Thugish be like, "Oh shit, I don't know who to pick!!! I can't find a character who's broken! What do I do?"

p.s: sc3's X isn't broken, just the best character, there's a difference. And Sophie may have been more dominant in tourneys, but Setsuka was a better character.
 
i thought algol's bubbles were a great idea that made him have a very unique and original playstyle, they went wrong with giveing him god range, the best backdash in the game, tons of safe combo starters, and no execution requirements.
 
Without me, Amy or X wouldn't be considered broken since nobody places consistently like me. So the question should be, what character am I going to make broke this time??

Oh and you never learned how to really play Sophie. You tried to play too much like sc3 which doesn't work in this game.
